People who have recently book the h1b appointment in Toronto, can you help me with the below query?
Quick background: I am currently on a closed work permit visa in Canada and have booked an H1B interview waiver appointment.Previously, I held a U.S. visa (F1 visa), which was issued on June 25, 2018. I am applying for the H1B visa for the first time. According to the Visa Renewal by Mail - U.S. Embassy & Consulates in Canada (usembassy.gov) website, it appears like I am meeting all criterias and I am eligible for an interview waiver appointment.
Initially, I had booked an interview-based appointment for August 12, 2024. Last week, I called the U.S. consulate office (customer service agent) to check my eligibility. The agent told me that I am eligible for the interview waiver appointment (based on my case) but I need to update a couple of questions as "Yes" as part of the "Applicant Responses" section. The two questions are as follows:
Q1: Could you please reconfirm if I need to answer "Yes" to the above questions and explain why?
Q2: Could you also reconfirm my eligibility for the interview waiver.Can someone help me with this?
